Our children

So everyone's always posting all these cute pictures of their kids and I feel left out so I decided to do one of our kids. Our dogs.. sad I know. But for now, they are our children!!!

This is Tex. He's an American Bulldog. He is the most loving dog I've ever known.. and he's huge so when he tries to give hugs and sit on your lap it makes it kind of hard. I usually get knocked over! He loves soft things to lay on (pillows, blankets, towels.. you name it), randomly eating grass, food of course, Milk Bone dog treats and hot dogs, playing with harlee, and rough housing with Mike! He's been a great dog we really love him. He's a part of the American Bulldog Association and he's been working on getting some pretty cool titles put on him at the dog show next month so wish Mike and Tex good luck. So far he has his CGC title which he had to test for. (Canine good citizen). By the way Mike does all this with him, I dont have the motivation. I think its way cool though!!!

And this is Harlee. She is a Puggle (pug/beagle mix). She's about 4 years old, Mike and I got her before we were married. Harlee's..... special!! Although she's cute as a button she's not quite as friendly as Tex, she doesn't really like strangers so it makes it hard to take her on walks! She's got lots of quirks about her.. She loves to give kisses, likes to sleep under the covers with mom, she'll pace around our wall in our backyard and just bark at it, she likes to chase Tex around the park, She likes wearing foo-foey dresses (really she does i think it makes her feel cute), and anytime I'm on the computer she's right underneath the desk just chillin at my feet like she is at this moment.

P.S. Last year for Halloween she was Snow White. This year she's a Bumble Bee. I'll post the pictures. WOW I'm a loser! But geez I gotta dress up something and I'm too old to play with dolls!

So there it is. Boring I know, but those are the other two Ploegers in our household that never get any love on the blogs!! A few years down the road we will have human children to talk about!!!

Mikes new love


And yes Pandoras box was opened. We bought the big screen of Mike's dreams! It's great though, we've been enjoying it. We will do our best not to become couch potatoes.. the HD is so hypnotizing though!

Happy Late Birthday!


Mikes 24th Birthday was last September 27th! I just want him to know that I appreciate the man that he is. This guy works 50 hours a week sometimes more and still finds time to be with his wife.. thank you love! I couldnt ask for a better husband. Enough with the mushy business.. so I called all of our close family and asked if they would want to help go in on a Playstation 3 for him for his bday. He absolutely LOVES it, I may have some competiton. He'll stay up so late playing that thing. But I'm glad he's found something where he can sit down, relax, and just play! His next project is getting a big screen tv so he can get the full effects of the blu-ray.. oh and not to mention now he wants an upgraded surround sound system. Have I opened pandoras box or what! Its ok he's worth every penny!

No more Blonde!


Hi Everyone. Yes I have been a Slacker and I have no excuses other then Mike and I being busy with our careers full time, so its hard to keep up! So I will try my best to fill you all in even though you think I probably fell off the face of the earth.. I'm still here guys! I decided to do somethins SO crazy that I never thought I would do it in a million years.. I completely dyed my hair dark. WOW! I look so different. At first when I looked in the mirror I didn't even recognize myself but its growing on me and I actually really like it. Its kind of nice how all the "blonde jokes" are no longer directed at me :o)
